It's been a while since the last update. There has been some good progress since then.

  • Two new boards supported
    • Note.. Nano 33 BLE sense Revision 2 There is issues in this version please use the development version available for download under the actions tab and load the firmware from local file in the upload window.
    • DTQSYS Head Tracker - https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005005208897560.html
  • Bluetooth supports Coded mode for extended range between two boards Head and Remote. Will not work with PARA or Non-Para modules.
  • Reset center on head tilt
  • Send a pulse to your radio on every center even. Could have your radio call out "Centered"
  • Magnetometer defaults to off, a disclaimer on the calibration page before you enable it.
  • New Gyrometer calibration routine.
    • This is no longer done in the GUI. On boot you must set the board down still until the Red led stops blinking.
    • It is more important if you have the magnetometer disabled
    • It will constantly calibrate itself but only when the board is detected it's not moving.
  • No-Mag mode holds very well with the new Gyrometer calibration routing.
    • If it's drifting in no-mag mode, just set it down and wait 5 seconds
  • Accelerometer Calibration Included
  • UART Mode is Selectable
    • SBUS Input/Output Support
    • CRSF Input
    • CRSF Output - ELRS and Crossfire can be used directly now, no radio required.
  • GUI cleaned up
  • WebBLE interface to configure the more common settings in the field with your phone. Use this web page to configure http://www.headtracker.net/
  • Linux GUI Note: The current user must be a member of the dialout group for permissions to serial ports
  • MaxOS GUI*

* Some work is still required to get flashing working in MacOS. I will update it here when it's ready.

On the internal side of things

  • Zephyr Updated to the LTS 2.7
  • QT updated to version 6
  • Serial transmission issues
  • Better logging backend
  • New boards are a little easier to port to
  • More stuff I'm sure I forgot
